Mumbai: A day ahead of his birthday, actor Ranveer Singh deleted all his Instagram posts and changed his display picture to a black background.
The Bollywood star, who will be turning 40 on July 6, left fans worried by sharing a cryptic post, featuring two swords along with the text 12:12 on his Instagram stories.
A concerned fan asked, “sab theek hai naa? (everything fine?)”.
“Hope everything is fine,” said others.
One fan felt it was a PR strategy to promote his upcoming film, saying, “A storm is coming!!! 🌪️DHURANDHAR 12:12.”
Another person posted, “Can’t wait to see it.”
“I am rooting for his comeback,” read one comment.
“It’s just a promotional thing for his new movie. His new movie teaser will be released tomorrow at 12:12,” guessed one fan.
According to a Bollywood Hungama report, the makers of ‘Dhurandhar’ have planned to release the first look of the film on Ranveer’s birthday.
“Ranveer knows something special is coming, a true cinematic treat, but he hasn’t seen the final cut. It’s entirely Aditya’s ingenious way of making this birthday not just memorable, but truly iconic for his superstar,” a source was quoted as saying.
Helmed by Aditya Dhar, ‘Dhurandhar’ features an ensemble cast including Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Yami Gautam, Akshaye Khanna and Arjun Rampal.
The film is set against the backdrop of a politically volatile India and unfolds during what many regard as the golden era of the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW).
